Duo Eunoia
Drawn together by their passion for using music in the context of health and wellbeing, Duo Eunoia create interactive performances where creativity, improvisation and connection are at the heart of it all.
Passionate about discovering the work of lesser-known and contemporary composers, they share a varied and contrasting selection of music with their listeners - from meditative sounds to magical scenarios, old traditions to folk melodies - to inspire each person’s own creative mind.
Inês Delgado, violin
Inês’ greatest purpose is to explore how music can help, empower and inspire others. Community music is a big part of her work, where she is particularly passionate about working with vulnerable or marginalized groups. She works frequently with Turtle Key Arts, both with people living with dementia and with children with severe disabilities. Inês is the 2021/22 trainee music leader at Evolve Music and at the Wigmore Hall.
As a performer, Inês’ passions are orchestra and chamber music. Currently, she is on trial with the Ulster Orchestra for the position of second violin Section Leader, and she is a 2020-2022 Foyle Future First violinist with the London Philharmonic Orchestra. She also regularly plays with other orchestras, such as the Oxford Philharmonic, the Philharmonia or the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
Laura Casas Cambra, piano
Laura’s passion for facilitating access to quality and meaningful musical experiences for all, has led her to combine a performing, community music and research career.
As a performer and researcher, next September she will be embarking on a doctoral research project at the Royal College of Music, which aims to introduce the public to lesser-known interwar female composers and their works, by recovering manuscript scores, preparing its premiere and recording, as well as their performing editions, suitable for publication.
Alongside this, she is delighted to be engaged in community music projects with early-years, young people, people living with dementia, and in prisons; with organizations such as Wigmore Hall, Spitalfields Music, Soundcastle or Liberty Choir UK.
This week as part of our Artist Development Programme, Horizon Project, we had two closed Masterclasses at Clapham Omnibus.
Why closed (with no-one else watching)? - So that both the artists and Gary and Jo could feel they could speak candidly, take more risks and allow themselves to be more vulnerable. Thanks to the great insights, tips and guidance from Gary and Jo, they were both really valuable and insightful sessions!
